WNBA Groupon offer isn’t exactly crushing it

Times must be really tough for Groupon because I just received an email for a discount on Chicago Sky tickets (what, the teeth whitening offers just aren’t paying the bills?). In case you are a regular human and don’t know who the Chicago Sky are, they are the WNBA team in Chicago. I wasn’t as shocked at seeing an offer for WNBA tickets as I was by the number of people who purchased the offer: “Over 10 bought”. Really? Apparently there are more than 10 people in the Chicagoland area who saw this offer and said, “Holy crap, Christmas has come early this year. I’m going to get me some sweet seats to see the 2011 Defensive Player of the Year (who apparently doesn’t have a name)!” Unconfirmed reports say that this offer has generated a 400% increase in attendance for the Sky.
